How many times did he repeat himself while speaking the truth?

100% spot on. Glad he said it because that is exactly what politics is.

CB's continued employment in the Entertainment sector is now in peril. I guarantee that he won't repeat this mistake.

More politics in sports is needed.

A message of true unity could be useful in many different forums

He’s spot on, but I do miss when politics and sports were completely decoupled

it’s just refreshing to hear on a national platform, because a majority of people agree with him and can’t speak up or say it

but it’s also sad that he has to even say this, but sports has gone full throttle woke mode since this last summer and doesn’t seem to be stopping any time soon

Does it really matter that most get it? Our social problems have never been hard to understand. Just impossible to get enough people on the same page to actually fix it. Selfishness is a terrible disease.

Yeah I think a lot of people are just so caught up in their daily routines or their own issues that you know they don't really spend too much time thinking about social issues which I know I don't.

I don't think that it's as bad as it seems when people say that we are now more divided as a nation than ever I think that's total hyperbole.

This type of stuff will continue to be discussed for as long as politics are brought up while watching sports events, the commercials, and pre/post-game sports content.

I am far from a boomer. Your post doesn't make much sense, as not everyone who disagrees with the disinformation campaign has quit watching sports.

So we love when our sports figures talk politics now? Tough to keep up.

I’ve never said keep politics out of sports I’m fine with politics, as long as they’re my own.
They’re normally not

You gotta take a step away from the keyboard and chill. It’s not even that crucial
